Lightning.... now with Louboutins!
MY DREAM.
I'm currently working on a feature about make-up products for video games and how awesome that would be - following the rumours of the FF perfume. This is also going to get a mention in said feature. When I finish it. Heh.
Neither do I really. :)Quote:

Why does everything have to turn into some sexism/feminism problem? Ugh.
If anyone who plays the game wanted to request me a drawing of their own customed Lightning, send me a note and I will be happy to draw her for you! The dressing feature looks very fun, but I don't have the gaming system for it, darn.
You know, I had this totally random thought earlier to do a mini "design your own Lightning outfit" contest in Relms Studio! You should join (if I do it, which I should!) :DQuote:

I criticize the Battle System to the extent that the game is too easy for the system to matter, but that's kind of an unrelated tangent! :pQuote:

I'm also glad by the looks of it, that enemies seem to different. One of my complaints about FF is that there is alot of palette swapping, and not so much originality. That weird club wielding green monster looks interesting.
I'm intrigued by this screen:
Attachment 43909
The ATB gauge seems to be limited, it's almost like MP points in that sense. Maybe it does recharge slowly during the 'day', but with each skill or ability you use, it drains it by, 1, 2, 3 whatever. Maybe items can replenish the gauge. This may then help facilitate constant changes of dress so you're not using up the ATB gauge of a dress.
The other thing I circled is interesting. Obviously, the sword icon is strength, and the magic icon is magic. Lightning's dress in this screen looks to be rather mage-like, and the numbers reflect it. The clock icon is new though. Maybe it's the recharge rate of the ATB gauge? Maybe it means something else? Who knows. I'm merely speculating on the icons!
Now I'm curious to see if there is a Steam Punk Outfit.
...I love Steam Punk Outfits. ;P
